Game Thread: Spurs vs Nuggets -- Wed. (11/18) - 7:30PM CST (3:30AM Riga Time)

[BatManu20]

At home against an improved Nuggets team who has won 4 of their last 5. Will also be the 2nd game of a B2B for them. Let's get it.

Nuggets hit 15 of 30 3's against Pelicans. I don't see that happening vs wingstop.

Can it be only coincidence that "Nuggets" resembles "Faggots?" Hmm.


As always, Tony Parker needs to dominate Fisher.

[Brian Windhorst]

Should be a good one. Faried is a defensive sieve but I'm sure Pop doesn't give a shit and will keep running Tony dribble, so it will be a close one.

Spurs say guard Manu Ginobili (bilateral hip tightness) will miss the next two games.

At least he won't sit on Saturday when I can watch the game

[Robz4000]

Welp, it begins. Manu is a huge part of the reason the Spurs are 8-2. Even with the easy schedule Spurs could be 5-5.

[Lostwingman]

Is Simmons still up with the big boys? This probably means we'll see more RayRay which I'm ok with.

[spursistan]

no Manu to bail out the ST and its clusterfuck offense :cry..

[spursistan]

Nuggets have been winning games :lol..Expected them to be utter shit, but Mike Malone is making the spare parts work at least for now (if only the Kings didn't fire him)..

[SAGirl]

I'm ok with more time for Ray too. He's been good in limited minutes and he's more experienced than Simmons. I still think they call Simmons from dleague.

[kawhidoyoudothistome]

Who's guarding their Manu?

[Fireball]

without Manu this game might be unwatchable ... anyway, just don't lose

:flag:

[SupremeGuy]

:flag:

Like I said in the Manu injury thread, at least we get to see more of KA. Maybe it's my Spurs colored eyeballs but the dude looks pretty good from what we've seen of him so far. Do I wish he was quicker and didn't take 10 seconds to shoot? Sure; but his defense, rebounding, and passing have been top notch, tbh.

It might turn out to be an interesting game actually. Both to see if the SL gets its act together and come swinging out of the gates (maybe Danny gets in the blazing hot mode to increase his shooting % for example), and to see some bench players that are maybe deserving of some playing time in Kyle and Ray.

[ceperez]

No Simmons call up yet???? You mean Bonner is playing?

[TXstbobcat]

Manu is out the next 2 games.

Get well soon Manu!!! :flag:

why are we still playing the Duncan-Parker two man game when Kawhi/LMA are on the floor?

Parker playing at an all NBA level.

He's going to the bench. Look for Denver to catch up and even regain the lead

[r0drig0lac]

nice play!

[ceperez]

Well because the starting 5 can't hit a single 3.

Offense not fluid at all without Parker. At least we making lucky shots :tu

that was pitch perfect textbook usage of a missmatch.

I suppose it's still effective and the other two guys together are not. I wonder if Kawhi will develop chemistry with LMA really.

I don't consider a home game against a scrub team that's too close for comfort to be a "fun game to watch". I find it cringeworthy whenever the Spurs don't seem to give a fuck on defense... they need to treat their goal like it's a queen's vagina, not a prostitute's, tbh.

[NASpurs]

This game is a 180 from the Blazers game.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

It's always seemed as if, whenever Parker scores a lot, it's always a high scoring game both ways against a less than stellar team that's too close for comfort.


Am I right?

[hater]

Only up 7 after shooting lights out smh

[SAGirl]

Perimeter d was not very good and Diaw/West together required Patty going bonkers hot to stay ahead. It is that kind of game. Danny made a ton of mistakes too. I hoped to see Kyle and Ray more, even Simms. It won't happen unless our D tightens up.

We don't need to be giving scrub teams a chance to win on our home court when we're trying to outpace the (currently undefeated) Warriors for the #1 seed, which would be difficult enough even if we consistently beat subpar teams like the Nuggets by 30 every time.
